i like justice so sign me up. should we focus our outrage? i for one am appalled by the depictions of home room teachers in anime as either absent minded or perverted.

Social Justice Warrior: A pejorative term for an individual who repeatedly and vehemently engages in arguments on social justice on the Internet, often in a shallow or not well-thought-out way, for the purpose of raising their own personal reputation. A social justice warrior, or SJW, does not necessarily strongly believe all that they say, or even care about the groups they are fighting on behalf of. They typically repeat points from whoever is the most popular blogger or commenter of the moment, hoping that they will "get SJ points" and become popular in return. They are very sure to adopt stances that are "correct" in their social circle.

The SJW's favorite activity of all is to dogpile. Their favorite websites to frequent are Livejournal and Tumblr. They do not have relevant favorite real-world places, because SJWs are primarily civil rights activists only online.

sounds ok to me :shrug:

Goon: A pejorative term for an individual who repeatedly and vehemently engages in arguments on literally anything on the Internet, often in a shallow or not well-thought-out way, for the purpose of raising their own personal reputation. A goon, or GODDAMN GOON, does not necessarily strongly believe all that they say, or even care about the groups they are fighting on behalf of. They typically repeat points from whoever is the most popular poster or commenter of the moment, hoping that they will "get goon points" and become popular in return. They are very sure to adopt stances that are "correct" in their social circle.

The goon's favorite activity of all is to goon rush. Their favorite websites to frequent are Somethingawful and Fetlife. They do not have relevant favorite real-world places, because goons are primarily able to interact socially only online.

some sentences i've never heard:

"i was really poor and oppressed but thanks to the efforts of self-proclaimed social justice warriors my socioeconomic status has improved greatly."

"i was going to vote this way but a sjw tore up my lovely views on an internet forum so now i'm going to vote that way."

"social justice warriors have had a real tangible impact on my life in some way."

i hate sjw's because i usually agree with them but prefer respectful conversation and activism vs internet twitter wars and youtube comment arguments

the above post was ironic and was in no way a real post. the poster apologizes if said post was thought to be honest in anyway.

basically i think the term is loose and doesn't have a consistent definition and it's been co-opted by a lot of morons

so while there are undoubtedly people who fall under the umbrella of "social justice warrior" who do really good things and help people, the term all by itself has at best a neutral connotation
